Since we were going to the Oregon Coast, I made a request to stop at the
Tillamook Creamery for ice cream. It ended up being a fun and educational experience!
The Tillamook Creamery is a huge tourist attraction which shares the history of Tillamook Creamery and their popular cheeses and ice creams.
There, you can not only indulge in ice cream and cheesy dishes in their dining hall, but you can sample some cheese, buy cheese and ice cream in their market, as well as do a self-guided tour of the cheese-making process.
I tried the Tomato Soup with Cheese Curds, Grilled Cheese, and Mac and Cheese.
Talk about a trio of comfort foods! I never had Tomato Soup with cheese curds before, but I liked it. The Grilled Cheese was nothing out of the ordinary, but paired perfectly with the soup, and I liked the Mac & Cheese - very creamy and cheesy!
The line for ice cream was surprisingly long even though we arrived just after opening. I got the Limited Edition Campfire Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream. It ended up being a marshmallow-based ice cream so it was too sweet for my taste, but I enjoyed the abundance of chopped pb cups.

If you live nearby or have a cooler with you to transport, you can buy ice cream and cheeses.
They offer samples upstairs to taste.
For a fee, you can get a more thorough experience with specialty cheese tastings and an interactive ice cream experience.
Upstairs is also where you can view the cheese-making process.
Try and get there early before the crowds!
